Frequently Asked Questions

What types of coins do you buy?

We buy all types of gold and silver coins, including bullion, pre-decimal, commemorative, and foreign coins containing precious metals.

How do you determine the value of a coin?

Coin values are based on the weight and purity of the gold or silver content, as well as the current global market price. Numismatic value may also be considered for rare pieces.

Do you buy collectible or rare coins?

Yes, we buy rare and collectible coins, and we’ll take both metal value and potential collectability into account.

Will you buy tarnished, scratched, or damaged coins?

Absolutely. As long as the coin contains gold or silver, we’ll assess its value—even if it’s worn or damaged.

Do I need ID to sell coins?

Yes. By law, valid photo identification is required to complete any transaction involving second-hand precious metals.

Do you offer appraisals for coin collections?

Yes, we provide free, no-obligation appraisals. Bring in your collection, and we’ll give you an honest assessment of its value.

Can I get a quote over the phone?

We can provide rough estimates over the phone, but for an accurate offer, we need to physically inspect your coins.

Are there any fees or commissions?

No. We don’t charge commissions or hidden fees. The price we quote is exactly what you’ll receive if you sell.
